Hi everyone! This is my first ever post. I've been reading these forums for years so I feel like I know you all lol, but I've never actually registered.

I've recently been getting nostalgic and watching old episodes of BB that stand out in my memory and I'd like to know what you consider to be 'classic' episodes and why. I'm not really looking for favourite whole series, just individual episodes that stand out to you for whatever reason.

I'll kick things off with the BB3 finale which I re-watched recently. I remember at the time this felt like an event! The culmination of the Jade storyline which was massive that summer, everyone was talking about her. Genuinely not knowing who was going to win and feeling like I'd be pleased for whoever it would be. There was no hate. I felt like BB wanted us to LIKE these people and be happy for them/congratulate them. The baying crowds that we're used to now were instead full of excitement and anticipation that mirrored our own and so it felt like we right there in the middle of it. I was blown away by the incredible atmoshphere of it all, it had a positivity that's almost unrecognisable now. Kate won because people liked her, and there really didn't need to be any other reason.

This was a truly great episode for me.

Looking forward to being reminded of more, perhaps obscure gems that I've forgotten over the years.
